In this special bonus episode, Mel explores the mysterious world of the Freemasons and the legendary Knights Templar, two of the most famous secret societies in history. From the Halliwell Manuscript and the myth of Euclid’s geometry, to the chilling details of Masonic initiation rituals (blindfolds, oaths, and symbolic death), this episode uncovers how ritual and secrecy created centuries of conspiracy theories and paranormal lore.

If you love paranormal podcasts, ghost stories, conspiracy theories, haunted history, or secret societies, this minisode is packed with the lore that shaped both history and haunting.
